What are ionic compound |
|
Answer» Also called electrovalent compound Ionic compounds are solids and hard due to the strong attracting force between the positive and negative ions. These compounds are generally brittle and break into pieces on application of pressure.Ionic compounds have high melting and boiling points because a application of significant amount of energy can break the strong inter-ionic attraction.Ionic compounds are soluble in water but insoluble in solvents like kerosene, petrol, etc. |
